Bridget: Well--well, I-- I mean, I had to admit to him that I was still into
Nick, and he told me he was actually hung up on someone else, too.

Jackie: Really?

Nick: Wh-Why is this the first I'm hearing about this?

Jackie: Well, you said that I had to find another interest rather than you.

Bridget: (Scoffs)

Nick: Well, couldn't you have taken up knitting or cards, something grandmothers
do?

Bill: Want to get comfortable, Katie? Hmm? I'll take that as a yes.

Nick: So you were seeing my mother at the same time you were seeing Bridget.

Owen: Hey, I wasn't engaged to anyone, Nick. I mean, all the secrecy and all the
close calls, I kind of just figured that Jackie would get sick of me pretty
quickly.

Jackie: Really? I thought it was gonna be the other way around. I did tell you
that there was unfinished business between the two of them, didn't I?

Owen: Yeah.

Bridget: Well, I'm sorry, Owen.

Nick: Company car, promotion-- nice deal you got.

Jackie: Well, it didn't go to waste, and nobody took anything away from you. And
you're the one who keeps letting what they value the most just slip through
their fingers. Will you take her home, please? Say what you have to say to her
before you do it again.

Donna: Aren't you gonna come to bed?

Eric: No. No, I have some stuff I want to think about. I'll stay down here in
the den. I'm too angry to sleep anyway.

Katie's voice: Dear Nick, this is the hardest letter I've ever had to write.
When I think back over the past months since I first met you, I ask myself how I
can ever thank you for being by my side through the worst and happiest moments
of my life. And I know the answer-- by doing for you and for Bridget what the
two of you did for me-- giving you your lives back. Thank you for letting me
live my dream for a time. Love always, Katie.

Nick: She's not coming back.

Nick: She knows that being married to you is the life that I wanted, and I'd
never stop wanting that back.

Eric: Good, and you showed up.

Stephanie: Well, I hope it's not an ambush. Your charming wife has been giving
me so many pieces of her mind lately, I shudder to think if she has any left.

Eric: Let's not make this about Donna.

Stephanie: Okay. I'm here because you missed me.

Eric: I might even miss you if you weren't constantly in my face the way you
are.

Stephanie: Oh, dear. I had no idea that, uh, having some success on my own terms
would upset you so much.

Eric: You can't be that naive.

Stephanie: Eric, if your company is floundering, permit me a very brief "I told
you so."

Katie: I was selfish, and I broke up his marriage, and I can't stand making him
miserable for the rest of his life.

Donna: Oh, my God, sweetheart, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Oh, my God.

Katie: (Sobs) Oh! Oh, God!

Donna: Oh God, are you okay?

Katie: Oh. Oh.

Donna: Are-can I-- can I get you something?

Katie: (Groans) (Retching)

Bill: I have a way with women.

Donna: (Sighs)

Bridget: Wait. Nick, I don't--I-- I don't know that I can do this. I'm gonna be
really honest here. I don't know.

Nick: Well, I'll be honest. If I were you, I'd run screaming in the other
direction.

Bridget: Look, the love is easy. Love you. I could tell you that every day for
the rest of my life.

Nick: Trusting's a little tough, isn't it?

Bridget: Well, yeah. I don't know that I can put this back together again. And
wanting to is just not enough.

Nick: But we had it goin' on, didn't we? I had the woman I wanted to be with,
the woman I loved. Lost a child, and it, uh, was replaced with a beautiful
little boy that we both love. And then I screwed up. (Sighs) Can you forgive me?

Bridget: I have.

Nick: No, you haven't, you see? You really haven’t. Because we wouldn't be
standing here having this conversation about you telling me that there's no way
back for us, because that's what I'm hearing. That's what I'm hearing you tell
me.

Stephanie: You're spending too much time with your wife. I've never known you to
be quite so melodramatic.

Eric: You think you’re in the driver's seat with Bill Spencer, but you’re not.
You're not, Stephanie. He's using you.

Stephanie: I'm looking at the one and only man who made his fortune on my back.

Eric: You know, hating me, justified or not, is blinding you to what's really
happening here.

Stephanie: I don't hate you, Eric.

Eric: We just lost 35% of our Manhattan area retail space, because your orders
are boycotting three of our stores. If Bill Spencer has his way, they will
blockade those stores all together by the end of the week.

Stephanie: It ain't Bill. I think it's called karma.

Eric: (Sighs) Karma did not offer me $100 million for our company flat out just
now. Karma did not warn me at if it wasn't accepted, the next offer would be
smaller if you and your "Eye on Fashion" readers have your way, knocking out
more of our customers. You know, this internet business of yours, these
gossip-filled blogs, you're embarrassing yourself, and Bill Spencer is
disenfranchising your children. He's stealing from your grandchild their legacy.
Is that the way you really want your success on your terms to be?

Donna: Um, is it okay if she takes a shower?

Bill: That bad, huh?

Donna: Yeah, I, uh, washed her shirt out in the sink. Um, do you have a plastic
bag?

Bill: Sure.

Bill: Here you go.

Donna: Thanks.

Bill: What's she gonna wear home?

Donna: Mine. I'll just, uh, wear her jacket. Do you think you could turn around?
I, you know, got to change.

Bill: Are you kidding me? (Laughs) Your sister comes in here, passes out on my
bed, pukes in my bathroom. You blow in all but accusing me of rape, and now
you're about to undress and demand that I not look? The hell with that. (Sighs)
Any time you're ready.

Donna: I mean, she means the world to me, and I-- (Sighs) I-I just want to thank
you for taking care of her and--and calling me.

Bill: Okay.

Donna: O-okay what? (Cackles)

Bill: You said you wanted to thank me. So do.

Bridget: (Sighs) I don't know that I can get there from here. I-I don't know.

Nick: I'm so sorry. I'm sorry I broke that thing inside of you called hope. And
I am so sorry that I hurt you so badly. But I know what I'm going to do. I am
gonna be the man that I promised you that I'm gonna be, the man that I can be.
And I'm gonna raise my son, and I'm going to be an example for him, and I'm
gonna show you that I can be true and that I can be faithful, because I can.

Bridget: Oh, Nick. Nick--

Nick: Bridget, I know. I know that you want to believe that, because I know deep
down you know that no one loves you the way I do, and you know no one gets you
the way that I get you.

Nick: Tell me you know.

Bridget: I should run right now. (Sniffles) You know, it's not-- it's not gonna
come back all at once.

Nick: I know. I-I understand. I know that.

Bridget: And there's gonna be days where I'm going to need proof.

Nick: And that's all right. That's all right. Everything's all right. I will do
whatever it takes. I will give you whatever you need.
